Editorial Reviews

B-List actresses be warned and flattered because FELT is back! Slug (Atmosphere) and Murs (Living Legends) reunite for their third release from moniker FELT. These MCs teamed up with The Grouch (Living Legends) in 2002 to release FELT's debut album A Tribute to Christina Ricci. Collaborating with producer Ant (Atmosphere) in 2005 resulted in their second coming A Tribute to Lisa Bonet. With the fresh addition of Aesop Rock (Def Jux) on production and unwavering love for those forgotten actresses who warmed their hearts, Slug and Murs are pleased to present FELT 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez.

5.0 out of 5 stars Felt does it again with A Tribute to Rosie Perez, November 17, 2009

Felt 3: A tribute to Rosie Perez is the long awaited third release from hip hop duo Felt, consisting of Slug (Atmoshpere) and Murs(Living Legends/solo career). This time around, with Aesop Rock handling the production, Felt has produced another fantastic album that is lyrically complex, musically engaging, and ultimately more accessible than the last two chapters in the Felt saga.

The album starts off strong and heavy with the track "Protagonists", which is reminiscent of the openers from the last two albums, "The Two" and "Employees of the Year". Murs and Slug explain who they are and the album continues on with the same energetic tone. From the almost gangster feel of the song "Bass For Your Truck", to the haunting beat of "Ghost Dance Deluxe", the body of the album is easy to listen to without skipping a track. Another standout track is "Deathmurdermayhem", which features a verse previously used by Slug in live performances of "Gaurantees".

It is also worth mentioning that this album has more content and offers more diversity than seen on the last Felt releases, and as a consequence I think the average listener will be able to find something they like within it. Fans of Aesop Rock's beats, the lyrical stylings of Slug and Murs, or simply lovers of hip hop will not be disappointed in this CD.

This review is from: Felt 3: A Tribute To Rosie Perez [Explicit] (MP3 Download)

I got this album as a compulsory show-love purchase (no disrespect guys) to bump as an anticipated release from the first two project albums from Murs and Slug (much love). The first two times I tried to listen to this album, I dismissed it because I wasnt ready to hear it and was expecting it to sound like something else (hey we all get stuck). When I finally guilted myself (slimy almost)to listen to it, I was absolutelly blown away and smiled for days like I just boned the untouchable hottie on the block. Aes rock's production is proper mad science that you did not think you would love (i know i didn't), the rock-funk fusion vegas style buffet and some dnb breaks are pure genius. The three have a great alchemical dynamic which makes this album beyond bumpable as it is impossable for me not to hear it front to back less than twice a day. Keep it coming guys, thanks for broadening my horizons,...again.

Spectacular CD, and buy the CD suckas(for the torrent herbs),cuz like many of us slug got a kid to feed too! So this disc kicks off with some solid production by senor Aesop and holds solid to the very end, I spun this straight through as soon as I got it, no skips, no dull moments. The beats and samples range from moody cemetery rompin to Southside sub pound'n @4am down 47th and Halsted. Slug and Murs flow on tracks like a carpet foating down the sky, cats live in symbiotic harmony with the music, cop't.
